Exegesis

The Qal imperfect yavo {יָבוֹא | yā-vō} ‘will come’ conveys inevitability. English word order preserves the Hebrew’s climactic syntax by placing the lamenting command first and retaining the simile before specifying divine agency.

In contextIsaiah 13:6

Wail, for the day of the LORD is near; as devastation , it will come from the Almighty.
